Math Monday - Addition

I am hoping to play a lot of addition games with Bear this week. Here is a few of the things I have planned.
 The addition strip board.
 Add It! from Confessions of a Homeschooler.  We'll be using little pumpkins since it is October.
 Adding apples on the tree.  We'll take turns doing the sum and then will compare who has more and less.
A homemade small bead frame.  The plus sign and equal sign are foam stickers I stuck to the styrofoam base.  Bear will choose the addends from the pile and move the beads over to find the sum.

    All good ideas. I think Anna is just now getting solid on addition, and she is a year older than Bear...

    These are so great. I don't even know if I can pick out a favorite. The home made bead frame is so creative.
